Abstract

Aim

This study aimed to evaluate dental esthetic screening index (DESI) Intraoral component scores among patients attending Qassim University dental clinics and the factors affecting these scores.

Materials and methods

This was a retrospective study that included 150 participants aged 18 years or older with full upper and lower anterior dentitions. Standardized intraoral frontal photographs of the patients’ upper and lower dentitions were acquired from their dental records, and the mean rank DESI intraoral scores were evaluated and compared across the demographic and dental characteristics of the study patients.

The mean age of the patients sampled was 33.56; 57 % were female and 43 % were male. The mean DESI Intraoral score was 15.33. DESI scores were significantly higher in patients older than 35 years compared with subjects 35 years old or younger (p = 0.015). DESI scores were increased in patients who had anterior restorations compared with those who did not (p = 0.016).

Conclusions

This was the first study of its kind to use the DESI in a large clinical setting. According to the DESI, most patients attending Qassim University dental clinics had good dentofacial aesthetics. Age and the presence of anterior restorations negatively impacted patients' dentofacial aesthetics. Sex, the nature of the chief complaint, a history of orthodontic treatments, and teeth bleaching did not affect the DESI scores.

卡西姆大学牙科诊所就诊患者的牙齿美学筛查指数(DESI)得分
本研究旨在评估卡西姆大学牙科诊所就诊患者的牙齿美学筛查指数(DESI)口内评分以及影响这些评分的因素。从患者的牙科病历中获取了患者上下牙的标准化口内正面照片,评估了 DESI 口内评分的平均等级,并对研究患者的人口和牙科特征进行了比较。DESI 口腔内评分的平均值为 15.33 分。与 35 岁或 35 岁以下的受试者相比,35 岁以上患者的 DESI 分数明显更高(p = 0.015)。有前牙修复体的患者与没有前牙修复体的患者相比,DESI 得分更高(p = 0.016)。根据 DESI,在卡西姆大学牙科诊所就诊的大多数患者都有良好的颌面美观。年龄和前牙修复体的存在对患者的颌面美观有负面影响。性别、主诉性质、正畸治疗史和牙齿漂白并不影响 DESI 分数。
